Max Allegri has problems up front and will rely on Federico Chiesa and Moise Kean, while Thomas Tuchel must cope without N’Golo Kanté.

The match kicks off at the Allianz Stadium at 20.00 UK time.

Juventus

The attacking duo in Allegri’s 4-4-2 will thus be Chiesa and Kean, while in defence it seems set to be a four, with Leonardo Bonucci and Giorgio Chiellini in the heart of the defence.

Adrien Rabiot was uncertain, but the Frenchman has been confirmed ahead of the visit from London, whilst Wojciech Szczesny returns in goal.

Tuchel should come with a 3-5-2, but will have to cope without Kanté. Thiago Silva and Antonio Rüdiger are expected to start with Andreas Christensen in the back-three.

Jorginho should start in the middle, with Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Mateo Kovacic. Up front, Romelu Lukaku is certain to start, with Timo Werner and Kai Havertz fighting for the place next to the Belgian.

  1. Happy rabiot is available this guy is simply indispensable in juventus midfield. I believe juventus will win today. Fonza milan

  2. Probably 5 or 6 ex-Serie A players in the Chelsea side tonight.
    A draw would be a good result for Juve, given their form. It might take some magic from Chiesa to rescue them tonight.
